Lie In Light

Andrew Pekler, the alien space-blues of Valet, and now the half German, half American duo Cloudland Canyon who actually bring the full-on Krautrock on. Cloudland certainly owe a debt to the German underground of the 70's, but they have added flourishes of Baroque Pop and even a tinge of the 80's New Zealand scene into their sound. They traverse a wide swath of territory. From the lock down groove of the opening track 'Krautwerk', to the dense buzz of 'White Woman', through the pastoral pscyh of 'Heme' and on to the gentle wash of the closer 'Moth light', Cloudland Canyon have created an eclectic and rewarding listen.
